19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Arrives in decent nick without winning, fourth of nine in 1m handicap at Ripon 13 days ago; it's now 20 runs since his last victory however. |
13/2 |

4th 9 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |
10/1 |

3rd 13 (13) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Back in better form with fourth-place finishes the last twice; still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf but he's on an attractive mark and Conor Whiteley takes off a bonus 7lb; shortlisted. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Both wins on AW and 0-18 on turf; a couple of Pontefract runs this spring that bring him into the reckoning and this is effectively his first run at this level since winning at Newcastle in December; should run his race. |
7/2 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two wins on AW but 0-17 on turf; second and third over C&D in the spring off slightly higher marks than this, before lesser efforts elsewhere on last two outings; well treated if back on song. |
8/1 |

6th 2 (7) |
10th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Two wins on AW but 0-16 on turf; twice placed at Pontefract this season but he needs to rebound from a lacklustre effort at Ripon (1m2f, good) three weeks ago. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Trainer won with three of his last five runners coming into today, all three doing it easily, two at big prices; this triple AW winner has shown enough since returned to turf to suggest he can be a factor at this level. |
11/4 |

5th 7 (5) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has run some fair races in defeat for his new stable but he is essentially regressive; surprising if there weren't a few stronger in today's field. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three-time AW winner; 0-5 for new stable since February but put in a good front-running shift before fading into fourth behind No Gain here (7.6f, good) last month; each-way claims if handing the forecast slower ground. |

9st 6lb |
Front-runner who won here over 7f last season (first-time blinkers); below her best at Newcastle (the scene of her three other wins) when last seen 103 days ago and now steps into class 4 company for the first time. |
12/1 |

29th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Front-runner who has turned in a string of good course runs since November, winning three times; latest second (6f) represented further improvement; another 2lb higher but set to go well again. |
9/2 |

2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Looked on the up when bagging a second C&D success in November but she came in a well-held fourth of six here 24 days ago; she's worth another chance. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
10-47 on AW, with all bar one of those wins coming at Newcastle (7f-1m2f); now sits 3lb below his last winning mark, and Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim is a bonus, but seems to have lost his way; may strip fitter for 7f course comeback run. |
40/1 |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Nine course wins to his name, mainly in the early months of the year; 50-1 for his C&D return a month ago, when well behind a few of these, and needs a big step forward. |
25/1 |
|
12th 12 (11) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Nine of his ten wins have come at this track (7f-1m2f) but last success was 13 months ago and he finished down the field here in his final two runs last year; looks opposable back from a break. |

1st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Without a win since May 2023 and generally very disappointing for current stable since last spring; ran okay behind Purple Martini over C&D two starts ago but still makes only limited appeal; sports refitted cheekpieces and first-time tongue-tie. |
20/1 |

10th 4 (3) |
10th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
1-20; continues to ease in the weights, down to a career-low mark, but hasn't shown enough in either of his last two starts (both 7f at Musselburgh) to suggest his turn is imminent; these newly applied blinkers need to work their magic. |
11/1 |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Needs to rebound from a substandard AW run ten days ago but made the frame on two of three turf starts in the spring (both times over 1m1f) and this longer trip probably suits better; can't be ignored off current mark. |
12/1 |
|
9th 4 (9) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Both wins last season were over 1m2f, latterly over C&D in September off 1lb lower than today; two minor honours from three starts this turf season ensure that he has a prominent place in calculations. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 1 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Both wins last season were over 1m2f; hasn't worn headgear so far this season and was below-par dropped to 7f last time (good to firm; reportedly never travelling) having run creditably when fourth at Ayr after a break 15 days earlier (1m1f); interesting with cheekpieces back on |
